Been intrigued over this Arsenal topic. Firstly, Cesc would not join Man City for one simple reason he wouldn't disrespect us by joining another premier league side. It has nothing to do with the fact that he may win trophies or get more money from City. It's just a mark of respect. He would join his home club Barcelona or even Real Madrid if he wanted.
As for Spurs, its simple their downfall is their defence. Will get 4th if lucky.
As for City, I reckon you will give united a close run for the 2nd spot. However it depends on which city turns up. The city at Birmingham or the city at Fulham. Also depends on Mancini, hes too negative and defensive in my opinion. Caution might be your downfall.
For us I reckon we are doomed, Wenger has completely lost it. Is it acceptable for a big club to be 6 years without a trophy your answer is no. United, Chelsea,Barca,Real,Inter etc would all boot their manager out. Wenger is a legend and will remain so however that does not make you immune from the sack. He is ruining his legacy, with all his lies and deceit and tippy tappy ballerina footballers. He is tactically inept. His team talk "Go enjoy yourselfs!"
No tactical brain. On a personal and coaching level he is top drawer the best. But managing, Tony Pulis has more of a managing brain. Wenger is a coach not a manager. Wenger is edging closer to the door so don't be suprised. It will happen sooner rather than later.
For yous I think aim to hit the 4th spot anything else is a bonus which Mancini will get credit for. I reckon you should stick with Mancini till the end of this season. When Guardiola goes might be the end of this season. Snap him up push for the title. Wait till end of next season, get Mourinho push for the league. Mancini won't deliver the league. Don't ruin it by getting a Rijkaard or O neill.
Peace.
